NASHVILLE, Tenn.  A Republican lawmaker is proposing legislation that would require schools to inform a student's parents if the child is engaging in homosexual activity.

Under the measure sponsored by Sen. Stacey Campfield of Knoxville, a school counselor, nurse or principal can inform parents if their children's "circumstances present immediate and urgent safety issues involving human sexuality."

Campfield told reporters on Wednesday that he considers the "act of homosexuality" to be dangerous to a child's health and safety.

The measure is part of a similar proposal, known as the "Don't Say Gay" bill, that Campfield passed in the Senate in 2011, but the companion bill failed in the House last year.

The proposal would ban the teaching of gay issues to elementary and middle school students.

Campfield says the current legislation has a House sponsor and he's optimistic about its passage.

Campfield, from the scientificly supportable position, states the obvious. Allowing male children especially, to follow the homosexual acts of coprophilic behavior and all the “special” diseases that go with it, is not just revolting, it is a profound threat to public health.

Stacey is the guy the state media, Democrats, and Liberals in general love to hate. They’re gunning for him big time in the next election (to the point of supporting an alternate Republican to run against him in the Primary). He’s also sponsored SB0132, limiting those cash dollars welfare recipients receive in the form of Temporary Assistance to Needy Families. If the children of TANF recipients fail to maintain satisfactory progress in school, those lose benefits over and above food stamps, housing assistance, etc. http://wapp.capitol.tn.gov/apps/sponsorlist/default.aspx?ID=S070&ga=108
